That's the closest it looks to me: http://bugguide.net/node/view/157508. (That link is obviously not the same species, but it's useful for anatomy.) You can see hairy legs, an abdomen with two appendages at the end of it, what look to be wing pads developing on the thorax, and a pronotum that is quite large, covering the head.
That's why I would call it a cockroach, but I could be wrong, of course.

@ Martinl i knew you would come to the rescue!!
I would guess sub adult cockroach, although some do stay wingless. The cerci are distinctive
